It will be lucky to make it to 15 million, as of this moment. All ninty fans bought the console when Mario Kart came out and so that is why SSB didn't boost sales so much. It's a dead console and news on an upcoming ninty next gen console are just helping it drown faster.


Basically this. I think the big boom when Mario Kart 8 came out was due to the barren drought of games on the console up until that point. If the console sells 20 million in its lifetime that will be considered a miracle at this point. And yes, I totally agree that the premature talk of a future console is doing more harm than good. I can see a new Nintendo console released in Japan sometime in 2017... I can imagine 2016 will be a very barren year for the console with maybe one or two heavy Nintendo AAA titles. I can also see the Gamecube having a more plentiful software line up compared to the Wii U once the console is discontinued... Bleak I know...
